Did you know that Howard Hughes
once closed his biggest business deal by taking all the bidders out and seeing
which one could pee the furthest, awarded contract on that.

Hughes would also sneak off
dressed as bum and hitchhike around
FRIEND:

wee bit sexist , no??
Phikent:

once rewrote his will and left
everything to a mechanic-dude in Beaver, Utah

hours of thumbing
